The security Forces have lost around 15,000 KIA since '83 which is about roughly 5% of the current strength. The LTTE on the other hand's lost close to 20,000 or about 200% of its current strength. So we should've beaten them by now, no? But we haven't.<BR/><BR/>Part of playing the numbers game is to prevent new numbers being recruited, and that's part of the reason for capturing territory in the East instead of just trying to trap the Tigers (even if we could have) -- controlling the civil populace.<BR/><BR/>It's also part of fighting the bigger ethnic conflict of which the war is only a part. Capturing and stabilising the East gives the GoSL the opportunity to demonstrate to the Tamils (and the world) that they are able to give the Tamils a fair and free democratic system within a unitary system. It's the same reason India needs Jammu & Kashmir -- to prove that it's a multi-religious state.<BR/><BR/>The battlefield is only one part of the bigger conflict. Try and understand that, Moshe. During the Korean War, MacArthur wanted to cross the yalu and invade China to prevent them supporting the North Koreans. He was sacked because he couldn't raise his eyes above the battlefield. Don't make the same mistake.<BR/><BR/>Parakrama, EPS was more important at that time because we had almost no control of the Wanni area. Jaffna too was in Tiger hands. Now things are different, though EPS will always have strategic battlefield importance. However, the Wanni and Jaffna are more important, aand as long as we control those areas, EPS is isolated and relatively impotent.<BR/><BR/>During the Vietnam War, the US Marines fought hard to hold the Khe Sanh base against the NVA, but later after the Tet Offensive had been defeated, they abandoned the base. Focus changes on the battlefield.<BR/><BR/>As I pointed out in an earlier thread, trying to drive through the Muhamalai-Nagarkovil axis in the direction of EPS will just suck us in deeper and deeper and take our focus off the throat of the LTTE in the Wanni. Even if we do take EPS, we''ll have to commit huge numbers of troops to secure its approaches if we're to hold it. It'll be another year at least before we can get pressure on the Wanni again. The bottom line is we don't need EPS anymore.<BR/><BR/>KBS, the danger isn't that the LTTE can take Jaffna, but that they can threaten it and Palaly. One of the rules of guerrilla warfare is that you must attack targets the enemy must defend -- EPS, Palaly/Jaffna and Kili are such targets.<BR/><BR/>Muru, the condoms are used to waterproof rifle muzzles, not to put on their dicks! At one point, the Army used to think they were fighting female Tiger units whenever they found bloody womens' pads, until we figured that the Tigers were using them as battle dressings:)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9079007316930841006.post-28870746074683398982008-02-07T13:37:00.000+05:302008-02-07T13:37:00.000+05:30qurious,hahahahahaha..lol!!qurious,<BR/>hahahahahaha..lol!!Srilankanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14669706047196092243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9079007316930841006.post-76210663507186661022008-02-07T13:22:00.000+05:302008-02-07T13:22:00.000+05:30Muru,"Sex in the bunkers"That is an interesting de...Muru,<BR/><BR/><B><I>"Sex in the bunkers"</I></B><BR/><BR/>That is an interesting development.<BR/><BR/>Muru, do you think in happier times these activities extended beyond the borders of these holes and then even the no-man's land?

Ranil,<BR/>Terror comes in different shapes and sizes. White sarong guy was a main supplier and a transporter of C4 and suicide bridals to Colombo. He was a hard-core living in Wattala with 6 other “room mates” for many years. Few more were caught later; interestingly two of them were not in Sarong but wearing holly dress. One was from Mannar and the other from N’Elya. We are grateful to the civilian who led us to an important supply route of an LTTE cell. You can find more details in Singhala papers. I will try to find a link..<BR/><BR/>What is also interesting is we count only the bombs that explode.

Your parents came to Canada and Europe saying they are harassed by LTTE (surprisingly not by SLA). LTTE is a myth. Do not live in a dream. Ask you parents, ask the old generation Tamils living next door. They will tell you about Tigers. Do not try to glorify terrorisms. <BR/> <BR/>This is not a war against Tamils. This is a war on terror! We try to save your ancestors in north from agony and suffering. We respect Tamils. More than 50% of the Colombo population is Tamils. They are not terrorists. They are peaceful people. The current issue is there is no Tamil leadership in North. LTTE has killed all your leaders to become the one and only representatives of Tamils. They have committed so much crime against Tamils… and they can not survive without weapons. This is the truth. <BR/><BR/>Tamil Diaspora does not and will not fund a sinking ship. What Tamils in SL need is to live in peace with dignity. There should be a political solution at the end. But first things first…..<BR/><BR/>See what happen to kids like you who are misled:<BR/><BR/><A> http://www.lankalibrary.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=2801"> </A><BR/><BR/><A> http://www.lankalibrary.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=2807"> </A>Cobrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17228821547753756151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9079007316930841006.post-89841199889301911162008-02-07T11:52:00.000+05:302008-02-07T11:52:00.000+05:30Soldiers destroy six rebel bunkers in Sri Lanka, k...Soldiers destroy six rebel bunkers in Sri Lanka, killing 5 guerrillas, military says<BR/><BR/>LINK:<BR/>http://tinyurl.com/yqokdn<BR/><BR/>Current International news says....<BR/><BR/>Little by little we r moving forward..

It’s not only him. Two years ago, the old general from the salmon eating nation said SL military will not be able to move any FDL by an inch. They were wrong. East is history for LTTE and now it is a do or die for North. It’s not a cakewalk for SLA. But, we have aclear strategy and the right leadership. It will take time. I am not sure whether we can capture north by the end of 2008. My timeline is end of 2009 (if all factors stay the same!). This is a slow painful dangerous and expensive process. We need to be patient and vigilant. There are many parties, internal and external, who want to stop the current ops. They were successful several times in history. SLA and IPKF both had the chance to finish this off but it didn’t happen. So…..folks it is going to be very exciting to see how the things will roll.<BR/><BR/>All LTTE 1st line FDLs in Vanni and Jaffan are now fallen. In Mannr we have captured more than 10 Kms. In Vavuniya, troops have probed up to the Kilinochchi administrative district border; Thampanai, Pandivirichchan, Mullikulam and Vilathikulam are captured. So who says we are not coming? Remember.. there are hundreds of kilometers of "front line" in Vanni and Jaffna. Those of you who have been to vanni know the territory, it’s a massive jungle. This is a jungle warfare gentlemen…… different to Iraq. <BR/><BR/>BTW, MI had a price catch last week in Wattala, Mabole!Cobrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17228821547753756151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9079007316930841006.post-40227059975115228572008-02-07T11:07:00.000+05:302008-02-07T11:07:00.000+05:30patriotgreat quote..thanks for sharingpatriot<BR/>great quote..thanks for sharingUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08186351038561364738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9079007316930841006.post-39425854380065401972008-02-07T11:00:00.000+05:302008-02-07T11:00:00.000+05:30Hi Guys,I have been reading this blog for few week...Hi Guys,<BR/>I have been reading this blog for few weeks and this is my first post.<BR/>I think attacking EP fron nothern line is too risky.Instead, advancing from Mannar (after capturing/destroying Vedithaltheev) and Attack Poonaryn would be better.
